Applesauce Cake (with cocoa)

Here is another one of GG Ottie’s recipes that struck me as unusual and tantalizing. It was also a challenge because many of the listed ingredients were vague. Therefore, where she stated to “spice to taste” I used her plain applesauce cake as reference. The spices listed there are: cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves. I also threw a splash of vanilla into the mix.

The results are a dense yet tender cake. “Tasty apply goodness…” said Hubby. He loved the raisins, and I enjoyed the addition of cocoa.
